The RealFlight 8 Will Get You Flying

.. from your very own chair, that is. Hobbico‘s new virtual reality flight simulator might be the perfect gift for the aviation enthusiast that doesn’t want to leave the comfort of their own home.

Dubbed the RealFlight 8, an upgraded version of the RF7.5, this thing can simulate flying radio-controlled aircraft with physics so realistic that it will get your heart racing as well.

Even actual pilots are drawn to it; the software is designed for use on a PC and is compatible with Oculus Rift and other popular VR headsets. Players can simulate flight with more than 140 aircrafts at over 40 sites – and, yes, weather conditions might affect your flight, but not your drone.

With multiplayer combat support, challenging simulations and an interactive digital environment, this piece of software will keep anyone busy for hours at a time. It is also worth mentioning that the software has been upgraded to accept more detailed HD models than before.

The RF8 package comes with ($180) or without ($100) the InterLink-X Controller, while minimum system requirements are Windows Vista or Windows 7/8/10 with 512 MB RAM and 10 GB of available hard drive space. Feel free to check out more information at realflight.com.
